SCP-096 is a humanoid creature that stands approximately 2.38 meters tall and has a very thin, emaciated appearance. Its skin is devoid of pigmentation, giving it a pale, almost featureless look. SCP-096 is known for its extreme sensitivity to being viewed; if someone sees its face, whether directly or through images, it will enter a state of emotional distress and pursue the viewer relentlessly. Once SCP-096 identifies the person who has seen its face, it will travel at high speed to their location, regardless of distance. Upon reaching the individual, SCP-096 will kill them in a violent manner. Afterward, it will return to a docile state, covering its face with its hands and remaining calm until it is viewed again.
